Sometimes You Wear Stretchy Pants.

I rarely post Facebook status updates. Now I'll post links to CFS's site and to my blogsite on FB but that's about it. The thing is, I'm an all-or-none dude. I typically don't do status updates cuz I know if I started posting them all the time, everyone would get sick of hearing the play-by-play analysis of what I just ate and how big my resulting bowel movement was. Oh, but today...today, my friend, the spirit moved me. The spirit moved and I updated my FB account, yo. Maybe it was the hotsauce on my naked burrito from Qdoba. Or, maybe it was the low-pressure system that moved into the Ozarks today, dumping rain on us and then leaving us as cold and wet as a vampire's vajayjay. More than likely, it's all the CrossFit naysayers out there I've had to listen to over the past few years who led me today to post on FB:

To everyone who has ever asked the question: "CrossFit? What's that?"

I say, "Watch ESPN 2 tonight from 7pm-9pm Central."

To everyone who has known what CrossFit is and has said:

"CrossFit? Yeah, it'll be another workout fad that'll be a flash in the pan."

And then like a true CrossFitter I kicked back in my chair at Qdoba, smiled, and kept score as I PR'd on the number of "Likes" I've received off one post. Whew. It's alot to take in...This many FB "Likes" all at once from so many of my Facebook besties. Guess somebody's gotta do it...

CrossFit Springfield

CrossFit Springfield is so much more than a place for elite athletes to become stronger, faster, more powerful, more flexible, more athletic, more agile, and more mentally tough. It's more than a place to gain greater work capacity over broad time and modal domains, and to set PRs and take off your shirt and roll around on the ground gasping for oxygen in a pile of sweat and possibly vomit.

CrossFit Springfield also happens to be a safe place where untrained or deconditioned athletes participate to test and better their strength, their endurance, and their will to become better people and better athletes. Fortunately for them, they receive daily instruction and coaching by the most caring, straight forward, knowledgeable, and motivating strength and conditioning coaching team in SouthWest Missouri.

There are two types of pain in life. The pain of discipline and the pain of regret. Any CrossFitter will tell you "It won't be easy" This is because it shouldn't be easy. You will earn your fitness. And your life will thank you for it.
